Go to the "Erase Lamp Service Check" on
page 2-50.
The printhead cannot be cleaned. If all other
attempts at correcting a background problem
fail, replace the printhead.
Check the high voltage contacts in grid block 1
and 2 to ensure they are clean, not bent,
deformed or pitted. If incorrect, replace the
failing grid block assembly
Be sure the HVPS is correctly installed and
securely mounted to the HVPS mounting
bracket and grid block assemblies. If correct,
remove the HVPS and be sure the high voltage
contacts align with the contacts on the HVPS.
Also look for any signs of pitting or damage.
If background problems continue:
• Replace the HVPS.
• If this does not fix the problem, replace grid
assembly 1, and assembly 1.
